The stars of Sex and the City (SATC) are celebrating the 25th anniversary of the hit TV show on social media.

Sarah Jessica Parker, Cynthia Nixon, and Kristin Davis thanked the series and its fans in separate online posts.

The show, which introduced Carrie Bradshaw, Charlotte York, Miranda Hobbes, and Samantha Jones as they navigated the New York dating scene, first aired on 6 June, 1998.

It ran until 2004 and spawned two feature films, which were released in 2008 and 2010, as well as the recent spin-off series And Just Like That....

And Just Like That...

Parker, Nixon, and Davis have reprised their roles in the spin-off series, with Cattrall recently filming a cameo as Samantha for the season two finale.

Nixon, who plays Miranda, posted a throwback photo from SATC alongside a more recent picture of herself.

"I cannot believe Sex and the City premiered 25 years ago today," she captioned the post.

"Before the show I never thought anything as big and wonderful as this could happen to me. And now I can't imagine my life without it!

"I know it holds a special place in so many of your hearts too, so thank you for watching. And get ready for season 2 of And Just Like That!"

Davis, who plays Charlotte, wrote: "It is impossible to believe it has been 25 years!

"I consider myself the luckiest person in the world to be a part of this story that connects so many of us together. It has and continues to be a JOY!

"Thank you to all of you who have come along for the ride. We love you."

Parker posted a picture of a golden necklace bearing her character’s name - Carrie.

"It’s our silver anniversary but the memories will always be gold," she wrote.

According to the industry publication Variety, Cattrall's brief return in the series two finale will see her have a phone conversation with Parker’s character.

She reportedly shot her dialogue without speaking to or seeing the rest of the cast, following years of reports of a real-life rift between her and Parker.

In a recent interview with The Sunday Times, Cattrall said that the show was "absolutely" becoming just one piece in the jigsaw of her almost-five-decade career.

And Just Like That... will be returning to our screens at the end of the month.
